The answer

Speech between the two sermons is permissible because the Imam is neither speaking nor delivering a sermon at that time. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "If you say to your companion on Friday, 'Listen,' while the Imam is delivering the sermon, you have engaged in idle talk." This indicates that the prohibition of speaking is related to the sermon itself. Some scholars have mentioned the permissibility of speaking before the sermon, after it, and between the two sermons.
